VideoJukebox: My Sweetie

so Wed nite, Wale premiered the video for his song My Sweetie. just a couple hrs after the video for his current single Pretty Girls debuted on 106 & Park.

IMHumboldtO lol, this video is better than Pretty Girls, which iWas kinda disappointed w. There was even a lil uproar about there not being any dark-skinned girls in the Pretty Girls video, and ppl took it to say that only lite-skinned, White, & Hispanic girls are pretty. Frankly thats not why iDidnt really like the video. After all there was iBelieve like two darker skinned girls in the video, but iWasnt payin much attn to all that. iThink iFeel like it was kinda lame *shrug*

but of course you know iGotta rep my Nigerian heritage by posting My Sweetie ;) looks like Wale tried to go for a more "African/Nigerian" look...

Oh and iPeeped my godbrother, Osinachi, who produced Wale's Nike Boots Remix, and also works w Darkchild. oh and also this girl that went to my high school, iDidnt know her but iRecognized her....

African Fashion

ankara is really just a basic fabric used in W. African countries like Nigeria, etc for traditional clothing.

here in the states, it seems like there has been a recent "boom" in the wearing of the fabric outside of African parties, iWld say starting from like 08-ish. ppl, specifically the females, are goin all out and having modern styles tailored for them.

even non africans have been spotted indulging in our traditional fabric in various styles. iJust wanted to let ppl know that this aint know new style/dress that the celebs have created, they've just hopped in the african bandwagon. maybe not so much, but, YOU KNOW WHAT iMEAN! lol

so iGoogled 'ankara styles' for some pics.

and of course iJust had to go on facebook and borrow some pix [from a party] from my good friends page ;)

aight im done, its just too much!

sites to check out: Vlisco, Olamild Ent, Fashion Africa, or just google like iDid!
